With rapid industrialization, continuous economic development, increasing population and living standards, the amount of general industrial solid waste generated in Kunming has increased continuously from 2001 to 2011. In 2013, the total general industrial solid waste generation was 33.19 million tons, deceased by 9.59% over 2011. The disposal and comprehensive use amount of general industrial solid waste in Kunming has increased dramatically from 2001 to 2013, and the disposal and comprehensive use rate of industrial solid waste increased fast from 64.39% in 2002 to 97.68% in 2013,but the comprehensive use rate of general industrial solid waste has not increased largely. Kunming’s general industrial solid waste treatment capacity has obvious difference from generation capacity, the produced industrial solid waste each year has the utilization of nearly 40%, with about 60% of the solid waste we cannot use. The disposal and comprehensive use rate of general industrial solid waste is different in different region of Kunming. Although the resource utilization of general industrial solid waste has made some progress in Kunming, the technical level is still very low compared with developed region, specially, the comprehensive utilization rate of phosphogypsum and tailings was not beyond 17% in 2013. Thereafter, much still can be done to improve the treatment and disposal of industrial solid waste in Kunming.
